I was very excited to receive Pixi Beauty lash and eyeliner line. I have completely transformed my makeup vanity into a Pixi Shrine! I have had the privilege to sample a lot of Pixi products and have loved every. single. one.

The Large Lash Mascara intensely volumes and lengthens for large lashes. It is smudge proof and water resistant. $16.

I've been using the primer and mascara combo since I received my package. I love it. I have hooded eyes, so it's a necessity for me to have smudge proof and waterproof lashes. This combination worked amazing for me.

Lash Line Ink is a deep black ink liner. It applies so well. It's waterproof, non-feathering, and quick drying. This is my new go to tightliner. As I previously mentioned, I have hooded eyes, so tightlining is part of my everyday routine. this product does not transfer to lower lash line and stays put all day. $14.

Eye Bright Liner is a waterproof inner rim liner used to brighten the eyes. I use this in combination with the Lash Line Ink. $12.

Endless Silk Eye Pens are award winning waterproof eye liners that glide on so well. The formulas are really amazeabells. You should really give this a try. They come in a range of colors: BackBlue, VelvetViolet, MatteMulberry, RoseGlow. I have to say, RoseGlow is hands down my favorite. $6 - $12.

Last weekend was a pretty terrible weekend that carried over onto Monday. Well, I woke up Tuesday morning and was like, "Forget everything, I'm going to do one of my favorite things to get my mind and heart in a better place." One of my favorite things to do is to watch Trisha Yearwood's cooking show while playing with polish!

All of my swatches are in two coats. The formulas are really great and I did not have issues with any.

I do have a thin layer of clear polygel on my nails for strength, which started breaking down and lifting throughout my swatch session. So, if you see some wonky lines, that's what it's from.

The morning sun was very good this day, so all my pictures were taken in natural sunlight.

Hey everyone! I have a, new to me, gel polish system to show you today!

Pink Gellac sent me their Gel Polish Starter Kit to try. The kit came with everything you need to apply a flawless gel polish manicure.

Included in the kit:

Primer

Base Coat

1 Gel Polish Colour

Ultra Shine Top Coat

10 Remover Pockets

LED Lamp

Nail File

Orange Woodstick

10 Cleaner Pockets

The shade included in my kit was Pink Gellac 182 Dynamic Pink

I did a full Manicure using the whole system and it wore very well. I did make sure to prep my nails well before applying. If you are new to gel, and are unsure how to prep, the Pink Gellac Starter Kit does have a comprehensive manual to guide you through the process.

Removal was easy. I buff off the top coat and then soak with the included remover pockets. By the way, I really love the ease of wrapping up the nail with the remover pockets. Again, if you're new to gel, the manual will guide you through.

You can order the Pink Gellac Starter Kit at PinkGellac.com. I visited the website at the time I made this post and it's listed at $49.50, which is a fantastic deal considering it includes every single thing you need to do a gel manicure.
